Gangsingen - thanks - having just bought a more expensive adapter I hope I don't have to buy another! Perhaps I'm having trouble because I'm using 0810. I'll try my test 1004 system when I can set it up.

Hari. No luck with the update and install. I'm appreciating your assistance and I'm sure this is going to work eventually.

it does not take long, the child is created as soon as it is detected on the 1wire bus. That happens within seconds.

Hari,

it was a mission to get the first sensor up and running. 1. I added the Interface in Webadmin.2. Waited. Reloaded and rebooted. 3. Even left the core for 24hours reloaded and rebooted. Still no sensor.

So I left it and added an MD to my system. Relaoded the router when asked, and then I noticed the temp sensor was added.The second and third sensors were detected and added allmost immediately though.

you are right it seems to be a mission to get the sensor loaded but I noticed (and other have too) that some of the software did fail to load/install the first time around. On the reboot after adding my HDD back in I noticed the libowfs package downloading and installing, only after this point did I see a child added and the device listed as 'registered: yes'

I had previously run "apt-get update && apt-get install libowfs27" per Hari's instructions but to no avail. I was getting errors associated with radvd after running the command that hari suggested. I did the fix (removed the 'blank line 2') and run apt-get update and apt-get upgrade. I don't think I ran apt-get install libowfs27 again though.

twodogs,if you run apt-get update do you get an radvd.conf error?

DragonK,have you added a second sensor? how quick is that found?

I am thinking about starting a new thread to get some discussion going on 1-wire deployment - for instance I am thinking of running the 1-wire network within a Cat5e cable along with my POTS and would like to know how others are doing it

I have mine (1wire usb and temp sensors) scheduled for delivery today from ibuttonlink that twodogs linked above. I'm running 1004 with all but the updates released today. I was going to apt-get update && apt-get upgrade before plugging in the device to see if I have the same experiences.

Looks like the packages are installed. I've tried to delete and re-add 1-wire, but womb is still barren - no children at all. The update gave me some errors that don't look like they concern 1-wire, but then again who knows? My 1-wire adapter is still showing unregistered after several hours. It had registered before, but I don't know how long it took.
